AP TEST REVIEW
PART TWO
Religious Wars through
Scientific Revolution
1
The Invasions of Italy

The Italian city-states were attractive to
invaders for several reasons:
» They were wealthy territories which were a
tempting target for stronger powers
» They were quite small and were easy prey
for larger powers.
2
The Empire of Charles V
(1519 - 1556)
Charles inherited a huge empire from his
father and grandparents which included the
HRE, Spain, the Low Countries, and the
Italian States.
 Conquered much of Italy by 1525
 Charles allowed his troops to sack Rome in
1527.
 1530: Charles made peace with the Pope
and was given the title “King of Italy.”
3

Weaknesses of Charles’
Empire
Geographically, his empire was so
spread out it was difficult to control.
 N. German princes were striving for
some measure of autonomy and were
using religion as a pretext for rebellion.
 The reformation had already begun
when he became emperor, and this
created religious division and wars.

4
The End of Charles’ Reign
1555: The Peace of Augsburg
established some measure of religious
freedom in the HRE (cuius regio, eius
religio)
 1556: Charles retired to a monastery
 1556: Ferdinand I (his brother) got the
HRE and Philip II (his son) got Spain,
Netherlands, Naples, Milan, and the
New World colonies.

5
Spain Under Philip II
(1556 - 1598)

Philip inherited a nation blessed with
great wealth in the form of gold and
silver from the New World. He
squandered much of it by:
» spending huge amounts of resources by
fighting religious wars to try to halt the
spread of the Reformation;
» purchasing luxury items from other nations
to keep the Spanish nobility happy.
6
The Dutch Revolt
Under the leadership of William of Orange
(William the Silent), the Calvinist Dutch
provinces (the Netherlands) united with the
Catholic Dutch provinces (Belgium) to
assert their independence from Spanish
control.
 The Calvinist provinces resented the
Inquisition and all of the provinces resented
the payment of taxes to Spain.
7

The Dutch, continued
Philip sent the Duke of Alva, whose
actions included the sacking of Antwerp.
 Following the sacking of Antwerp, the
Catholic provinces left the Dutch
alliance and joined with the Spanish.

» The Catholic provinces eventually became
Belgium, while the Calvinist ones became
the Netherlands.
8
The Spanish Armada (1588)
Great rivalry existed between Spain and
England over control of the seas and
control of new world wealth.
 Relations between the two nations had
not been very good for a long time.
 Philip decided to attack England in an
attempt to restore Catholicism to the
nation in 1588.

9
Reasons for the Attack
Philip had been married to Mary I (Eng).
After her death, Philip made some overtures
to Elizabeth I and she refused to marry him.
 Wanted to restore Catholicism to England.
 Angry that England had aided the Dutch in
their fight against Spain.
 Resented English power in the new world
and resented the attacks of the English “sea
dogs” on Spanish galleons.

10
The Defeat of Spain
The English decisively defeated the
Spanish Armada in 1588, thus
preventing any Spanish acquisition of
England.
 This defeat forever weakened Spain
and led to its decline in the next century.

11
The Dutch Republic

Secured de facto independence from
Spain by the late 1500’s due to
weakening of Spanish power.
» This was made official in 1648.

Golden Age of the Dutch Republic:
early 1600’s due to political stability,
economic prosperity, and cultural
achievements.
12
The Thirty Years’ War
(1618 - 1648)
Forever weakened the HRE and paved
the way for French continental
supremacy.
 Approx. 1/3 of the population died and
approx. 1/2 of the wealth of the German
states was depleted.

» This decimation set the stage for the longterm fragmentation of central Europe.
13
The Bohemian Phase
(1618 - 1625)
Protestant, Frederick V of Bohemia
demanded more autonomy for Bohemia
from Ferdinand II (HRE)
 Defenestration of Prague
 Rebellion drove the Imperial forces from
Bohemia
 The Protestant forces were decisively
defeated at the Battle of White Mountain
and Frederick was deposed.
14

The Danish Phase
(1625 - 1629)
Danish King Christian IV stepped up to
lead the Protestants who were nearly
wiped out after phase I.
 The protestant forces experienced more
losses at the hands of Tilly and
Wallenstein.
 The Edict of Restitution forced protestants
to restore to the Catholic church all lands
that had been taken from it since 1552.
15
This was a major defeat.

The Swedish Phase
(1630 - 1635)





Swedish King Gustavus Adolphus and his army
landed in Germany, starting phase III of the war.
Cardinal Richelieu of Catholic France supported
Gustavus and the Protestant forces in an
attempt to control the power of the Hapsburgs.
Many early protestant victories, but Gustavus
was killed in battle in 1632.
Ferdinand had Wallenstein assassinated in
1634.
Phase was a costly one for both sides.
16
The French Phase
(1635 - 1648)
Sweden was attacked by Denmark in 1635,
because Denmark hoped to break the
power of the Swedish empire.
 France sent troops to help Sweden.
 Cath. France + Prot. Sweden vs. Cath. HRE
+ Prot. Denmark + Cath. Spain
 1645: Denmark surrendered
 1648: Germans called for a truce.

The Treaty of Westphalia
(1648)
Renewed the Peace of Augsburg (cuius
regio, eius religio).
 Officially recognized Calvinism as a
legal religion
 nullified the Edict of Restitution
(whoever owned the land in 1624 got it
back)
 Recognized the independence of
Switzerland and the Netherlands

18
Westphalia, continued
German princes given more sovereignty
(they now had the right to raise armies
and conclude foreign alliances)
 All agreed to settle their religious
disputes through negotiation, rather
than edict or majority vote.
 This treaty permanently weakened and
fragmented the HRE.

19
THE FRENCH CIVIL WARS

Although France had only a small
minority of Huguenots (approx. 9% in
1560), they had far more power than
their numbers, because most
protestants were upper middle class
persons or members of the nobility.
» Many of these Huguenots became
Calvinist as an excuse to take a stand
against the power of the Valois family.
20
Francis I and Henry II
Both of these kings were concerned about
the growing Protestant minority and actively
persecuted the Calvinists.
 Unfortunately, Henry II died while his sons
were quite young, leaving Catherine de
Medici as the queen mother. Catherine had
a difficult time dealing with the various
political and religious factions in France and
her religious policies were disastrous for the
21
nation.

More Wars
Religious intolerance culminated in the
St. Bartholomew’s Day massacre in
1572 when Coligny (Prot. advisor) and
several thousand Parisian Protestants
were killed.
 This again ignited more warfare and led
France into the “War of the Three
Henry’s.”

23
The War of the Three
Henry’s
In this war, England helped the
Protestant forces, and Spain helped the
Catholics.

Navarre won a series of military
victories which established him as King
Henry IV and created a new ruling
24
dynasty in France--the Bourbons.

When he took over, France was in a
state of religious and political disorder,
and the central government was
severely weakened.

the help of his advisor, the Duke of
Sully.

worth a mass”).
